5-4 Win for Washington in Extras
The Washington Federals faced a tough opponent in Philadelphia pitcher Thomas Goss, but still scratched out a win at Girard Grounds II by a final score of 5-4 in 10 innings. Goss went 10 innings and allowed 5 runs. The Federals raised their record to 31-68.

Washington used the timely hitting of Lee Estes to seize the win. The third baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the tenth inning to put the Federals on top, 5-4. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Games like this one keep the antacid makers in business," quipped Philadelphia manager .
